Effects of Saccharomyces cerevisiae or boulardii yeasts on acute stress induced intestinal dysmotility

Figure 6 Addition of Saccharomyces boulardii supernatant to the stressed lumen recapitulated much of the effect of the boulardii yeast. A: Saccharomyces boulardii (S. boulardii) Snt increased PCC velocity and frequency in the stressed jejunum. 95%CIs straddled 0 for mean paired differences in jejunal peak amplitude, showing no effect; B: S. boulardii Snt decreased PCC velocity and frequency in the stressed colon. S. boulardii Snt had little effect (very little increase) on stressed colonic peak amplitude and again the 95%CIs straddled 0 for mean paired differences. PCC: Propagating contractile clusters.
